The Official Scramble Thread

[Kaori]

I'm posting the final part of my Alpha Sapphire Nuzlocke Scramble in a couple of hours, which means it is time to start recruiting a team for the 4th installment of the series!

I will be moving onto Sinnoh and playing through Pokemon Platinum! Just like always, I'm combining the Scramble with a slight variation of the Nuzlocke rules, meaning that if one of my Pokemon faints, I can no longer use it for the remainder of the game. This does up the difficulty quite a bit, so I will be accepting a couple of reserves to use as back ups.

Some additional rules:

Fully evolved Pokemon only.

Do not suggest any Pokemon that are not available within Pokemon Platinum. Trade evolutions are totally fine because I have two DS systems and multiple gen 4 games.

Remember that this is a more difficult version of a Scramble AND Pokemon Platinum isn't an easy game. I'm not asking you to give me only S tier Pokemon, but try to be mindful of what other people have already given so I don't end up with a team full of common weaknesses/lack of offensive presence/etc...

Slots:

I will be accepting 10 Pokemon in total, six for the main team (including my starter) and four reserves.

For the main team, I would like to have at least THREE Pokemon by the third gym and a FULL TEAM by the 5th gym. Reserves can be Pokemon found at any point of the game, even late game.

Main team:

1. Empoleon
2. Togekiss
3. Drapion
4. Medicham
5. Rapidash
6. Yanmega

Reserves:

1. Carnivine
2. Weavile
3. Rotom
4. Garchomp

I'll give you Togekiss because you really like it

 

[SkylarAlpha]

I'll give you Empoleon for a starter

 

[Moonwatcher]

Thank you all for the pokemon. (Even though Scrafty is one of my all-time least favourite pokemon. :/) Just two more to go and I'm ready :)

@Kaori I wanted to give you Drapion , but they're apparently a hugh pain to catch. So if you'd rather not spend an unknown amount of days searching for a Skorupi then I'll give you a Hippowdon instead.
Your choice. :)

I've actually always wanted to use a Drapion, so I'll risk the low encounter rate!

How would you feel about a Medicham? Bit of a Hoenn throwback for you XD

 

[Deva]

@Kaori How about Rapidash ? Results in another Ground weakness, but oh well.

It's okay! I needed a fire type anyway and I have Togekiss as a ground immunity.

 

[Flo]

@Kaori Carnivine gang rise up

 

[seaturtle]

@Kaori yo I'll give you Weavile as a reserve since you don't have any Dark or Ice types yet. Good luck!!

 

[LRachelR5]

@Kaori why don't you take Rotom as a reserve?

 

[SAF]

And here I am, wondering if will do for @Kaori's last reserve. I mean, we all know how hard it is to get a , right?

 

[Varhii]

How about we tack on Yanmega as that 6th slot.

 

[SAF]

Btw here's a friendly reminder that @Moonwatcher and I still need two Pokemon for each of us. (idk if it's two or one for him, and it's one for each slots for me)

 

[SkylarAlpha]

@SAF You can keep using Viximon ^^

 

[SAF]

@SAF You can keep using Viximon ^^

Mentioning nickname, huh?
Either way, Viximon in

Remaining slots: 1 Elio's

 

[Calaf]

@SAF For your final Pokemon, how about Goodra?

 

[SAF]

@SAF For your final Pokemon, how about Goodra?

Oof, it's going to be tough to get one, but I'll take that anyway.

Now that I've got my full team, gimme some time to snag Elio's parts~

 

[Moonwatcher]

Ok, so I just need one more reserve pokemon before I can start my Y Nuzlocke :)

So far I've got:
Dragalge
Diggersby
Gogoat
Delphox
Klefki
Scrafty

And as reserves:
Florges
Lapras
Yanmega

 

[SkylarAlpha]

I'll give you Absol as a final reserve!
